1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectiveExamine associations between postmenstrual age (PMA) at CPAP discontinuation, length of stay (LOS) and PMA at achievement of oral feeds in preterm infants. STUDY

designRetrospective chart review of infants <33 weeks gestational age was performed over a period of practice change (2017-2022) implementing extended CPAP use. Clinical interventions, outcomes and LOS were reviewed.

resultsThe study population included 571 infants. Over the study period, PMA at CPAP discontinuation significantly increased as did PMA at full oral feeds but there were no significant differences in LOS. Linear regression modeling identified that older age at CPAP discontinuation was a predictor of longer LOS but effect size was small at 14 h per week of CPAP.

conclusionsLOS was not prolonged in a clinically meaningful way following extended CPAP use, despite delayed oral feeding, in our study cohort.
